Ep 64: Why People Lie and Believe Their Own Lie

Have you ever caught someone in a lie, confronted them, and heard “I never said that” — with zero hesitation, zero guilt? This episode breaks down the psychology of lying and self-deception, and why some people don’t just lie to others — they lie to themselves until they actually believe it.

We’re diving into the science of memory and lying, how repeating a false story can rewrite your own memory, and how to spot it in the people around you — a sibling, a partner, a coworker who always has a different excuse. You’ll also learn why confronting a lie often turns into gaslighting, and how to protect your peace when you can’t win that argument.

But this episode isn’t just about “that person” in your life. It’s about turning the mirror around and asking: what story have I told myself, so many times, that I stopped questioning it?

Tune in for the psychology of self-deception, real-life examples, and a simple tool to catch yourself before the story becomes the truth.

Your mindset is not just what you think, it’s where your power begins.
